Screaming does not drama make.
This is the worst interpretation of this scene that I have ever seen. Hamlet and Gertrude are just running around screaming. Granted it's filmed from the stage, but it seems as though they're OVER acting. I feel as though Hamlet's madness is more contained than this, and certainly with his mother. When reading the play, I see him as aggressive, but not as brash as this interpretation. Gertrude is his mother, and yet there is no intimacy between them -- just unyielding aggression on Hamlet's part.
